      Director

      Calm Acres at Meadow Creek Farm is an equine assisted learning facility in Carroll County, Maryland that offers sessions in equine assisted work for individuals with and without a disability. This work has a history of validation by physical therapists, physicians, teachers, and parents as a successful way to help people with physical and intellectual disabilities. It has been demonstrated that horses have an amazing power to unlock human potential. We provide an environment where participants can relax, learn, and grow as they interact with this amazing animal.My name is Teresa Perrera and I bring over 35 years of experience to the program and amdually certified as an Equine Specialist in Equine Assisted Therapy (eagala.org) and with Greg Kersten's OK Corral Series (okcorralseries.com). I started Calm Acres after I witnessed the profound effect my horses have on individuals with a disability. I knew our horses could provide a service that is needed. In all that I do with my horses, my goal is always centered on providing a space for people to feel safe, secure, relaxed and calm. I think I have created that here at Calm Acres. The mission of Calm Acres is to improve the well-being of individuals with and without a disability through customized equine facilitated experiences. Show less
